This is a very sturdy hand rail. Easy to install. Worth the few extra dollars for the stainless steel and thicker tubing.



by:

This handrail is great.It makes it much easier for my wife to get in and out of our motor home.It was easy to install and looks good.Very sturdy handrail.

The handrail is still working great.It still looks like new, no rust still shines. My wife uses it every time she goes in and out of the motor home.



by:

Shipping was fast installation was very easy all the parts necessary to install was with the item

Renton

It’s working out great everybody that looks at it wish they had one I think it’s a great safety item for if you have stairs going up into your RV



by:

The only problem we had was in this West Texas heat it got HOT. To eliminate this, I put a cover that helps grip and absorbs the heat so problem solved. I love the locks. I use the bottom lock as I can reach it standing on the ground. Locks match the door lock.



by:

This product is well made and very sturdy. I would have given it a 5 star if it came with instructions. This handrail should aid my wife getting in and out of our motorhome, she had a stroke years ago and has a balance problem. The only thing I don't like is etrailer lowered the price $31 after I received my order, bad timing.



by:

Having the extended handle helps

Jimmie

After a year I still really like the extended hand rail. It has made it a lot safer getting in the camper.



by:

I just received my Solidsteps and stainless hand rail both products where easy to install and for me that was good look forward to many years of use
Thanks again to Noah at etrailer great job



by:

This is a lifesaver for older campers. I am able to reach the handle without reaching up so high. It also gives me much better grip to pull myself up the steps. Do not feel like I am going to loose my balance. Number 1 on my list.



by:

Would have 5 stars,but did not receive keys or screws to secure plastic covers



by:

etrailer is always quick with shipments, the handrail arrived a day earlier than estimated. It fit the original brackets on my 5th wheel, so no extra holes in the wall. If the original composite brackets don't withstand the additional leverage I can always convert to the brackets provided.

I installed this longer handrail because my wife had taken a fall with the old handrail. We really like the additional length. It is working great, still on the original composite brackets.



by:

We don't actually use these on an RV, we use them in the garage. We've installed them next to the three step staircases that lead from the garage to the kitchen and from the garage to the back storage room. (We just installed them on one side of the stairs -- the same side as the door handles.) They are very solid since we were able to screw the mounting blocks into the studs for the doorways. It was nice not having to try to drive any anchors into the concrete floor since they mount on the wall as opposed to a traditional stair rail. We also like the idea that we can fold them out of the way if we need to get a large item through the door or any other time a traditional railing would get in the way.



by:

It didn't have any instructions on how to assemble the brackets that bolt to the trailer . springs nuts washers with no instructions on how they went. I was able to use my original brackets after I ran my drill through the old bracket and new handle in position. It is a great addition to our trailer. It is really nessasry for 5th wheel with 4 steps.



by:

Much more heavy duty than the aluminum and plastic hand rail that came on the RV. Out of the box, the mounts did not line up with the existing position on the RV wall. I squeezed the mounts toward each other about 3/4 inch and every thing lined up. The holes lined up with the two already in the RV, I drilled four more pilot holes and installed the screws. Mounted up solid! My only complaint is that the bolts that go thru the mounts to the thumb screws tend to slip against the stainless tubing when you tighten the thumb screws. I used a little super glue to secure the bolt heads, a machined recess would be nice out of the factory.



by:

I am very happy with my new hand rail. I received it quickly from etrailer and put it on my 5th wheel. The original railing had 4 screws attaching it so I had to drill 4 additional holes. Everything needed was in kit. Very simple. The entire installation took less than 10 minutes. It works great with my 4 step entry. Looks great too.



by:

Product functions as stated. I needed longer screws to secure it to my camper.

Working as it should. No issues.

I ordered two of these last year and mounted one outside the door and one inside the door of our motorhome. They are priceless! Because of these my 83 year old grandmother can travel in her motorhome with family again. She was having trouble getting in & out, until I installed these awesome grab bars. They installed very easily & securely, folds away perfectly when driving, excellent stainless steel durability, great design, can't recommend them enough. I am very happy with them to say the least. Giving the confidence & freedom of independence to travel again has been priceless to my grandmother & family.



by:

Bought this for my mother who is elderly and my sister who has MS. They needed a hand rail that would fasten to the wall and could move out of the way when we needed to move something in and out the door. This worked perfectly! It is designed for a motor home or travel trailer, but worked perfectly in the garage of my mothers home. She did not want to drill holes in the concrete to mount a traditional rail so this worked great. I had to fasten a block to the wall because the mounting bracket was to wide for a standard stud. I mounted a block across 2 studs and mounted this to the blocks. Well made and fairly sturdy. Much sturdier than the aluminum and plastic block one on my travel trailer.



by:

Was easy to install no drilling on our Montana 5th wheel ,same manufacturer as the original handrail so same screw hole pattern just unscrew old one and install. bingo done
Wife has put her stamp of approval on it as she is unsteady on her feet and this one has a longer extension so she is able to grasp it on her way up the stairs sooner



by:

My wife recently had hip surgery and coming down the four steps from our Toy Hauler made her uneasy as the stock hand rail was not long enough.

Installed with ease in about 20 minutes.
4 of the 8 existing holes lined up but that was not an issue as the screws provided we self taping and long enough to provide a solid install.

Had my wife try exiting and re-entering the rig and she really likes this rail...feels very sold and safe.

Seems well build and looks great!
Really like that it folds back for travel like the original...

Good investment/addition

Also, I really appreciate the ease of the order process and followup by a rep with customer service...

The only thing so far that would make this even better would be a rubber grip the entire length...like what comes on the standard rail supplied by the OEM.

That said we have ordered some rubber wrapping from E-Trailer...



by:

Fit perfect without drilling new holes. This handrail replaces an ITC unit that the plastic catch locks broke off of. The all aluminum brackets are a good upgrade.



by:

Absolutely love this handrail for my trailer. It has created safety for my wife ,great grandkids as well as myself. It also looks great and make it easy to enter and exit my RV thanks and I would highly recommend this product



by:

Great addition. Only problem was the hardware. Should have been stainless steel. The galvanized steel bolts react w/ alumimnium. Added a backing plate



by:

This hand rail was even better quality than expected. Local rv dealers should learn to carry quality instead of the cheap stuff they might even sell some. This was even well priced for the quality. I will never need another one. My wife loves the better length access as well. Extremely pleased with all portions of the sale including follow up.



by:

Well made and all of the parts were on the package. Free shipping was fast and it was well boxed, with no damage. I am actually using it in the residential setting. Has a lot of different applications besides travel trailers.



by:

Perfect replacement for the original hand rail and gave the added length for the new steps.

  • Recommended Handrail for Fleetwood Bounder Motorhome
    The hand rail with the largest handle would be the Stromberg Carlson # AM-533 you'd looked at. The hand rail also features a padded handle on the lower end of the bar for a comfortable grip when you're climbing that first step. I have no way of knowing what hole spacing was used for the handrail on your motorhome, the manufacturers don't keep track of that information so there's no way to look it up. However, I've provided a photo showing how the mounting holes are spaced for you. Each...

  • Replacement Hardware for Stromberg Carlson Folding RV Handrail
    The hardware for the Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail # AC-530 is no longer available as a kit. You would have to purchase the entire kit. If you will be drilling and mounting into a stud you will only need the correct screws which are as follows. (6) #14 x 3” Phillips head mounting screws, (2) #8-32 x 3/8” pan head screws for securing mounting bracket covers.

  • Handle for Horse Trailer for Easier to Get In and Out of
    Hardware is not provided with the Easy Grip Assist Handle # PLR6612-A since most applications are unique enough that one set of hardware would not fit every application well. You would not need a gasket setup either. Another option you might like is a larger folding handle like the Stromberg Carlson part # AC-530 which is much bigger. I attached an install video for this as well.

  • Recommended Handrail for a 2020 Jayco Precept With 2 Electric Steps
    All of the removable handrails are going to only work with 3 or 4 step manual steps, so for your situation I'd recommend going with the Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs # AC-530. This handrail measures 24" wide x 38" tall, has a max weight capacity of 200 lbs, and will install to the exterior of your trailer and fold away when not in use.

  • Replacement Handrail for Winnebago Sightseer Class A
    The Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail # AC-530 could be used as a replacement for the handle on your 2007 Winnebago Sightseer Class A, and if you've already got a similar Stromberg Carlson handle on your coach it's likely that this is a direct replacement. We don't have a database that tells us if parts like this were used on your coach, but I can tell you that this handle has 24.625" between the two arms that mount to the coach. I've linked a photo that shows these dimensions, as well...

  • What are the Dimensions of the Camco RV Handle # CAM42175 when Folded Outward from the Trailer?
    The dimensions of the Camco Fold-Away RV Grab Handle - Aluminum - Black # CAM42175 when folded outward is 14-1/4 inches from the side of the trailer. For a handle that extends to at least 21 inches, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs # AC-530. The Stromberg Carlson handrail gives you 23.9 inches of length from your trailer's side. In addition, the handrail has the same folding capability as the Camco Fold-Away handle.

  • Recommended Folding Handrail For A Trailer That Does Not Require Interior Space
    I took a look and all of the MORryde handrail steps like the Handrail for First Generation 3-Step MORryde Steps # MR93RR that you have all require 33" of clearance inside your camper. I went ahead and checked out some other alternatives that you may be interested in, however they are a bit different than # MR93RR . Check out the: -Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs - Stainless Steel # AC-530. This handrail will mount next to your door on your trailer, measures 24" wide x 38"...

  • Stromberg Carlson Folding HandRail Recommendation for RV with Triple Step
    For a triple step the better suited hand rail option is the part # AC-530 which is 38 inches tall. The part # AC-544 would be a bit too tall and would not be ideal.

  • Removable Handrail Compatible with Lippert Solid Step # LC678027
    The SolidStep Manual Fold-Down Steps # LC791575 does not have a handrail that is available as an add on part. However, you may want to consider using the Aluminum Hand Rail for 4 Step Scissor Stair # AHR4 that will give you a 43 inch removable handrail. You will need to determine how to attach it to the steps as it is designed for the scissor steps. I've attached a video to assist. Your other option is to use a folding handle that may be longer than your current RV handle. For this...

  • Does Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail Fit Certain RVs and Trailers or Is it Universal
    It is possible that the Stromberg-Carlson had rail # AC-530 will fit the stock brackets on your 5th wheel trailer. But this is considered a universal fit item. But if if the rail part does not happen to fit the brackets or the bracket spacing, the unit does come with its own brackets that you can use.

  • Handle Recommendation for Use with Lippert SolidSteps
    We have hand rails like the part # AC-530 that can be installed on your RV that would work well with the SolidStep part # LC678025 that you referenced. But we do not have a step setup that fits directly to the Soidsteps.

    The Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs, # AC-530 is a complete kit, it has the needed mounting hardware. The rail and mounting hardware are not sold separately. To install, you must make sure that the rail's mounting blocks are positioned in front of a wall stud or the blocking behind the door.

  • Does The Stromberg Carlson AC-530 Hand Rail Come With Metal Or Plastic Mounting Blocks?
    The Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs # AC-530 will come with hardened plastic mounting blocks. This does not by any means suggest weakness though, and they are rated up to 200 pounds. These mounting blocks are also lockable, which is a very nice feature.

  • Handrail Option for RV with Lippert SolidStep RV Steps
    We have hand rails like the part # AC-530 that can be installed on your RV that would work well with the SolidStep part # LC678027 that you referenced. But we do not have a step setup that fits directly to the Soidsteps. The SolidSteps were designed to give you a much wider step that's also incredibly stable so typically a hand rail isn't quite as needed.

    Since your door way width at the narrowest point is 30” and your entry height is between 35” to 44”, then the Lippert # LC791575 Solid Step is the best fit. With bigger steps you may want to consider a bigger hand rail support. The Stromberg Carlson # AC-530 Folding Handrail is the perfect solution. It is easy to install and is very strong.

  • Solution for Handrail on 2020 Coachman Prism
    If you want to install a handrail on your 2020 Coachman Prism it will have to mount to the side. The design of your TreadLite PowerStep will not work with the Stromberg Carlson Rail Mate # AP-101. As you already saw, there is no surface to install that mounting plate. Instead, I recommend a rail like the # AC-530 or # AM-533. This will mount next to your door and can fold down when not in use.

  • Extended Handrail For Trailer That is Longer Than 18 Inches
    Hey Kari, You can add a longer handlebar for your trailer to more safely traverse the stairs, and what I like is Stromberg Carlson Folding Handrail for RVs # AC-530. The handrail extends out 24 inches from the sidewall, so you're getting an added 6 inches from what you currently have.
